Exactly! Mind you I think out of this 5 kids only 3 are doing it as the other 2 are above average kids. 1 is new to the school only started here a few months back so came from another school. The other her mum has had tested & came back as "Gifted". Her older brother is also very smart.
See this is what worries me.. These kids are on the 2nd year with the same teacher(s) (they have 2 for K/1) & if what I hear is right about the classes next year Glenn will be stuck with these 2 AGAIN. I feel this was a big part of Evans problem as he also had the same 2 teachers for Kindy & yr 1.
Eta - See & even the "Gifted" childs mum gets "average" report cards & comments even though she is clearly well above average & she questioned the teachers at the p&t meeting she was told they don't like to "talk the kids up". She said thats crazy as the reports are for the parents to read not the kids (even though her daughter could read & fully understand teh report LOL)
